assembly has the persOnelle of the
senate been so handsome and impos
ing-'tis true that blessings brighter
as they take their departure" anC
that we are very often guilty of look
ing back with fond retrospectiOn OF
what has been, and The memory oi
those who have departed, is very
sweet, yet We acknowledge now that
our beau ideal senate has convened.
The president himself, is, and hal
always been considered the Apollo
Belvidere of Missouri, and Senator
Cssileman the most debonair OF gen
tleman, who like the gallant knight:
of King Arthur's Round Table would
be willing to tilt lance for
any good and glorious cause. Seus.
tor Sheldon, of ST. Clair, is another of
the strictly handsome men and in the
lobby and at the Imperials "is the oh.

quent calls into the lobby by his lady
friends has given him the sobriquet OF
1.-The ladies, Senator"
Senator Jacobs, although married,
is another
ESPECIAL FAvORITE HERE
for his kind, flank, open heartedness.
He is also among the handsome men
of the senate, differing in type from
Senator Wood, who Is a bright blonde
with magnificent beard and splen-
did eyes.
Senator Sparks, of Cas-, and Sena.
tor Downing, of St. Louis, are in my
mind both slngularly handsome men,
and often taken for each other, though
the friends of both do not consider
then at all alike. Both have silky raw
en- mustaches, and very dark olive
compilations, deep meditative brows
and both have a thoughtful aspect.

L wish had space to mention i 'di-
all the handsome senators
but that would occupy your entire
paper. | content myself with reiterat-
ing what | said at first, our senate
Is THE HANDsoMEsT BODY
Of men, taking them collectively, we
have assembled for wears. They
impress one from the lobby as a grave,
deliberate body of men, with no non-
sense and mOnkeying about them.
They are here to do their duty and
will do it. The usual bantering of
stale wit and old dilapidsted ches-
nuts is not INDUCED in to the same
extent as heretofore. Sometimes
Moran, of Buchanan county,
lifts his stentorian voice in sardonic
lerision, but they cast a mantle of
charity over him and peacefully pro-
iced with business. Senator Moran
6 peculiarly fitted for the house, and
hould have beeh returned there.
That body needs him, and ris peculiar
genius would have mad an outlet there.
As it is, in the senate, he is necessarily
,urbed and restrained by deliberate
reads.
Mrs. Anna Sneed Cairns, of ST. |
louis, is still here working faithfully

legislators there is
